installing lvsound2.dll?

[J_Webster]

I have a labview program that I compile on one computer, then deploy and run on another.  In the past, to get this to work, I just installed the labview runtime library on the target computer along with the compiled program.

Recently I tried this on a new target and when I tried to run the program I get an error that lvsound2.dll can't be found. 

i found this thread... https://knowledge.ni.com/KnowledgeArticleDetails?id=kA00Z0000019TrkSAE&l=en-US  but the folder <Program Files>\National Instruments\LabVIEW 20XX\ doesn't exist on the target computer.

Where should I look for lvsound2.dll?  How can I get this working?

Thanks

Hi,

When you compile the application, LabVIEW should include lvsound2.dll in the data subfolder of the build output folder. So the build output should be something like this, where lvsound2.dll is automatically included in the data folder:

Provided you have the LabVIEW runtime installed on the target computer, you just need to make sure you copy over the compiled application, including the data subfolder.

Ah yes, thanks.  I think I knew that but was in a hurry and stopped thinking for a bit.

Cheers
